Muslims now pressing Amazon to drop toilet-seat covers

Amazon.com complied last week with a request by the Council on American-Islamic Relations to stop selling doormats featuring Quranic verses, but now the retail giant is receiving complaints about other products, such as toilet-seat covers with Islamic imagery.

The executive director of CAIR’s Washington, D.C., branch, Masih Fouladi, said Amazon’s quick response regarding the doormats “sends a message to manufacturers of such inappropriate and offensive items that they will not profit from Islamophobia or any other form of bigotry.”
